Chapter 15 Cutting Chickens with Knives
Zhu Yijun walked out of the back door of the Wenhua Palace, shook his sleeves, handed the two pieces of paper to Feng Bao, and said, "Feng Daban, give you two errands, build these two things well, one for use at night and one for tomorrow." ”
Feng Bao took the two pieces of paper and looked at it, it was drawn by His Majesty during the banquet in the Wenhua Palace, the lines were extremely neat, and the details of the scale and part were also marked, as well as the description of the use, a drawing is a pen, and a drawing is a pile of knives.
The pen is required to be slender and the knife to be sharp.
"After the Empress Dowager Ming, she personally went to the War Bureau to create two things, Your Majesty has a life, and the minister will be the liver and brain!" Feng Bao took the two drawings, suddenly knelt on the ground, and solemnly saluted.
The reason why Feng Bao suddenly made such a big gift was that His Majesty had given him something to do things for the first time since the assassination of the king, which was a kind of trust, and being able to do things for His Majesty meant that his position as a great man could continue to be maintained.
The emperor is young, but he will grow up eventually.
Since the assassination of the king, His Majesty the Emperor has first taken advantage of Empress Dowager Li's doubts about Feng Bao to strip the power of the eunuchs of the Qianqing Palace from him; then used Zhang Hong's disguise to clear Wang Zhanglong's suspicion of biting him; Now he is even more skillful in making a wave of exchanges with the outer court, forcing Zhang Juzheng to stand on the opposite side of Wenchen.
In Feng Bao's view, the most important thing in this round of interest exchange is to force Zhang Juzheng to do a big thing that is angry and resentful, even if Zhang Juzheng has no deference and wants to be as disrespectful as Gao Gong, he must weigh it and whether he can do it.
The Interpretation Academy is a thing that violates the core six virtues of Confucianism and does things that are peaceful in heaven, but it is led by Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng was so infamous that he had to rely more on the imperial power to do things.
Feng Bao thinks so.
Zhu Yijun thinks that the solution hospital itself is the biggest gain of this case, after all, the solution hospital can vigorously promote the medical progress of the Ming Dynasty.
The Interpretation Yuan will definitely attract countless voices of doubt, the world is declining, the words of people's hearts are not ancient, and the words of etiquette and music are endless, and the opposition will drift like snowflakes in front of his imperial case.
It's all handed over to Zhang Juzheng to deal with, if he can't even suppress this bit of opposition, what else will he do.
"Zhang Hong." Zhu Yijun asked Feng Bao to calm down, and then turned his head and said to the eunuch standing on the right.
"The minister is here." Zhang Hong bent over, took two steps forward and whispered.
Zhu Yijun smiled quite frankly and said: "You and Feng Daban learn more, you see that Feng Daban is in the court today, angrily reprimanding Ge Shouli's words, quoting scriptures, and making Ge Shouli speechless, this is the benefit of reading, and I will definitely read more books in the future." ”
"These scientific and Taoist officials have sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and they are going to beat them in the field they are best at!"
"Obey."
"Your Majesty is highly praised!" Feng Bao's face bloomed with joy, and His Majesty praised him twice for saying well, which was a great affirmation.
Empress Dowager Li's side no longer trusts him as much as before because of the assassination of the king, and His Majesty also admonishes him a lot, if he goes on like this, can he continue to sit in this big position?
In the afternoon, Zhu Yijun arrived at the martial arts school on time and began to practice martial arts.
After the stump was over, Zhu Yijun always felt that his hamstrings kept jumping, and after the imperial doctor Chen Shigong cut the pulse, it was not a big deal, mainly because the emperor was a little fat.
This is related to the diet of Emperor Wanli, Emperor Wanli likes sweets, does not like sports, at the age of ten, there are about 100 catties, this pile is naturally harder than others.
Chen Shigong suggested increasing lean meat, reducing the intake of sweets, losing weight and gaining muscle, keeping your mouth shut, and opening your legs.
Zhu Yijun told Chen Shigong about the Jie Ji Hospital, and when the Ming surgeon heard about it, he was surprised and delighted.
He was admitted to the Tai Hospital, just for the sake of medical progress, in the Tai Hospital for three years, he read the collection of the Tai Hospital, the purpose has been achieved, ready to be like Li Shizhen, resign from the Tai Hospital, travel the world to improve medical skills in diagnosis and treatment.
At this time, His Majesty gave him another choice.
I was surprised that the little emperor was ruthless, and he was a living person.
Happily, the little emperor provided another avenue for medical advancement.
Chen Shigong quickly convinced himself that under the imperial system, Wang Zhanglong dared to assassinate the king, and Chen Hong, as the emperor's domestic slave, actually dared to betray the master, which is a heinous felony that violates etiquette, is this still a human being?
Since he is not a human being, he sees the criminal as an animal.
Isn't it a waste to give such good material to the executioner?
"Your Majesty, why don't you watch the execution?" Chen Shigong put forward his own small request, and the emperor's imprisonment really made him a little frightened, and the bloody scene was afraid that he would scare the little emperor.
Zhu Yijun shook his head and said, "If I have time, I will go over and take a look." ”
Zhu Yijun was practicing hard, and Empress Dowager Li also listened to Feng Bao's recital and said with a smile: "Your Majesty praised you, you should be rewarded, go to the inner treasury to pay fifty taels of silver." ”
Empress Dowager Li took a skewer from the palace maid, and there was a golden hoop on the top of the vermilion skewer, one of which could be withdrawn from the inner sash for fifty taels of silver.
"Thank you for the Empress Dowager's favor." Feng Bao said quite festively.
The emperor did not control money and food, and there was no reward for goods and goods, but the reward of Empress Dowager Li still made Feng Bao overjoyed.
The most important thing is that this reward, everyone in the palace knows that he Feng Bao is still deeply trusted by the Queen Mother and Her Majesty, this is the key, with power, a little gold and silver, it is not easy?
Feng Bao's recital to the Queen Mother, the court discussion part, mainly based on his own angry scolding Ge Shouli, to please the Queen Mother, is Feng Bao's compulsory course;
As for the exchange of interests between the little emperor and Zhang Juzheng after the feast, Feng Bao mainly attacked the ministers of the Jin Party for usurping the imperial power and the sourness behind the peace of affairs;
As for the Liberation Yuan, which was angry and resentful, and abandoned by people and gods, Feng Bao interpreted it as Zhang Juzheng's statement that he would not merge with the Jin Party, or that he would not join forces with ministers to limit imperial power like Gao Gong.
"Can't we go on?" Empress Dowager Li said a little unwillingly.
Although Zhang Juzheng did something angry and resentful, he chose to completely stand on the emperor's side, which made people breathe a long sigh of relief.
Zhang Juzheng is a little more powerful than the high arch, if Zhang Juzheng also wants to learn the high arch, how can orphans and widows sit on the country?
But these lawless ministers were not punished, which really made Empress Dowager Li breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.
Feng Bao also said helplessly: "Yuanfu does things in a measured manner, everything he thinks about is the Ming Dynasty, all are His Majesty, Yuanfu doesn't want His Majesty to take over the country, he is a tattered and broken Ming." ”
"Daming can't stand the toss, and Gao Gong wasted the trust of the first emperor." Empress Dowager Li's attitude towards Gao Gong was complicated.
Gao Gong, the assistant to the husband, when the husband was there, there was still a little deferentiality, after the husband's big trip, through the Jin party and the henchmen all over the government and the opposition, he actually wanted to restrict the emperor's approval and reciprocation, which she would never allow.
This case, at this point, no matter what the truth is, it can only be Chen Hong, a eunuch, who credulously believed the handwritten letter, thinking that he had colluded with the former head and assistant Gao Gong who had lost power, and was dissatisfied with the heinous case done by the loss of power.
At least in terms of the qualitative nature of the imperial court, it must be so.
Zhang Juzheng has already stated that if Empress Dowager Li insists on doing it, it will be to completely push the new first assistant Zhang Juzheng to the Jin Party.
The Jin Party has not won over Zhang Juzheng, even if Empress Dowager Li is in the palace, she has heard of it.
For Zhang Juzheng's attitude, Empress Dowager Li is still very satisfied, she wants a name and power, that is Wang Mang, as long as the power is not famous, it is just right.
Letting go of chasing and killing Gao Gong in exchange for Zhang Juzheng's surrender, and using political interests in exchange for political interests are the skills that Empress Dowager Li stumbled and learned after the first emperor's great trip.
"Huang'er, are you tired?" Empress Dowager Li looked at Zhu Yijun's limping appearance, yesterday he was still limping, and today he was already limping.
It's not bad to practice some martial arts, in this stormy and declining situation, a little more self-protection ability is a point.
Zhu Yijun shook his head, blinked his big eyes and said, "I'm tired, I'm tired, but Imperial Doctor Chen said that the child still has to move, and the child moves more and grows taller." ”
Empress Dowager Li waved her hand and signaled Feng Bao to step down, she accepted the exchange of interests, and she didn't want the emperor to take over a ruined Ming when he was in power.
Feng Bao did not fool the little emperor, and after reporting the details of the Wenhua Palace to the Queen Mother, Feng Bao went towards the military battle, and he had to personally stare at what His Majesty wanted.
"What did the emperor read today?" Empress Dowager Li asked about schoolwork, yesterday Zhang Juzheng also praised Zhu Yijun for reading well, but today there is no praise, which makes Empress Dowager Li a little confused.
"I learned the allusion of cutting chickens with a knife." Zhu Yijun knew that the Empress Dowager Li was going to take the school homework, and the Empress Dowager Li was the first person in charge of the little emperor's education.
At that time, the county lord of Wucheng was Confucius's disciple Ziyou, and Confucius smiled when he saw Ziyou and said: Wucheng is a small city, so why use the avenue of etiquette and music? Isn't it a knife for cutting chickens? ”
Ziyou didn't know that Confucius wanted to use him to teach his disciples, and Ziyou said: If a gentleman learns the Tao, he loves others, and a villain learns the Tao. Meaning: Master advocates education without class, although Wucheng is small today, but Ziyou is studying under the saint, and he does not dare to despise the small people of Wucheng, and does not teach the people of Wucheng etiquette. ”
Only then did Confucius say to all his disciples: Yan Zhiyan is also. The ear of the preface. That is to say: Ziyou's words are right, and my previous words are jokes. ”
Only then did Empress Dowager Li know that the allusion of cutting chickens with a knife came from this, and she continued to ask: "What is the explanation of Mr. Yuanfu Zhang?" ”
Zhu Yijun said quite accurately: "Mr. Yuanfu Zhang said: The edict of Emperor Zhaolie of the Shu Han Dynasty said: Don't take evil as small, don't take good as small, but be virtuous and virtuous, and be able to obey others." ”
"Don't do any small evil, small evil accumulates into big evil; No matter how small a good deed is, it must be done, and small goodness accumulates into a great good. ”
"What does the emperor think?" Empress Dowager Li couldn't help but nod her head, Zhang Juzheng was really carefully teaching the emperor to read.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said, "Mr. Yuanfu Zhang is right. ”
"Huh? Ha ha. Empress Dowager Li covered the corners of her mouth and chuckled, Zhu Yijun's answer was really reasonable, unexpected, and made people laugh.
Zhang Juzheng was born as a serious scholar, and his knowledge is naturally no problem, but I am afraid that some ministers, full of economy, have read all their lives, but they open their eyes and say nonsense, pointing to the deer as a horse and reversing black and white, Zhang Guan and Li Dai confuse right and wrong.
Zhu Yijun replied with a straight face: "The child asked Yuanfu: Is the gentleman only referring to the king?" Yuan Fu replied: A gentleman, a ruler is also. It refers to the person who governs the society, not just the monarch. ”
Then the child asked, "Is that the gentleman evil, the little evil the great evil, and the small good the great good?" Motosuke replied: Yes. ”
The child interprets this sentence: A gentleman, the ruler is also, if the gentleman is evil, the country is evil; If a gentleman is good, the country will be good. It is said: a gentleman learns to love others. ”
"Yuan Fu was silent for a long time: When the time comes, the ministers should try their best to assist, prosper the ancestral industry, revitalize the Henggang and sweep away the scales."
When Empress Dowager Li heard this, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Okay, good, my son is talented and intelligent, and he used to be those ministers, and everyone was reasonable, and they all confused my son." ”
Children don't study well, it's all because the teacher doesn't teach well, the logic of Empress Dowager Li, in Zhu Yijun, is extremely smooth, ten-year-old children, when studying, in a word, changed to several teachers to interpret, it is strange to understand, even Zhang Juzheng is confused, not to mention the ten-year-old son of heaven?
Empress Dowager Li took a few more sentences, and Zhu Yijun explained it according to the narrative structure of the classics, Zhang Juzheng's annotations, his own annotations, and Zhang Juzheng's evaluation.
The attendant also sorted out the record of today's banquet in the palace and presented it to the Empress Dowager Li.
After the Empress Dowager Li took the school examination, she couldn't stop nodding, although the child practiced martial arts and was a little unprofessional, but this homework did not fall behind.
The most important thing is that Zhu Yijun's reading has been affirmed and recognized by the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yijun was very glad that the Empress Dowager Li agreed to settle the matter, and Zhu Yijun had already prepared a rhetoric to persuade the Empress Dowager Li, but the Empress Dowager Li did not insist on taking people, which made Zhu Yijun breathe a sigh of relief.
It is important to deal with the deep-rooted Jin Party in the DPRK and China.
